Fig. 1 Comparison of rat aortic diameter after elastase perfusion and treatment with either doxycycline or saline solution. Data shown are mean ± SEM of aortic diameter for animals in each group (n = 6). Open circles, doxycycline-treated rats; closed squares, saline solution-treated control group. Abdominal aortic aneurysm, defined as increase in aortic diameter to at least twice that of preperfusion control, is indicated by dashed line. *Significant difference between doxycycline- and saline solution-treated groups (p < 0.01, Student's t test).

Fig. 2 Histologic appearance of rat aorta at various intervals after elastase perfusion and treatment with saline solution or doxycycline. Elastase perfusion causes little detectable damage to elastic lamellae (arrows) up to 2 days (B). In saline solution-treated control group with aneurysmal dilatation, pronounced elastin degradation occurs by day 7 (C), associated with dense inflammatory response, which is resolved by day 14 (E). In contrast, elastic lamellae are preserved in nonaneurysmal doxycycline-treated rats both at 7 days (D) and 14 days (F), in spite of occurrence of inflammatory response similar to that seen in control group. At 14 days, outer aortic wall of doxycycline-treated rats is thicker, with more collagenous fibrosis, than that seen in saline solution-treated control group.

Destruction of elastic lamellae is seen adjacent to infiltrating inflammatory cells in saline solution-treated control group, whereas elastic lamellae adjacent to inflammatory cells are preserved in animals treated with doxycycline.

Fig. 4 Comparison of enzymatic activities after elastase perfusion and treatment with saline solution (Sal) or doxycycline (Dox). Protein-normalized aortic extracts from unperfused rats (Pre) and elastase-perfused rats killed at 2, 7, or 14 days were examined by substrate zymography with gelatin (A) or casein (B) substrates. Control group included A, mixture of authentic human 92 and 72 kD gelatinases (92/72), and B, porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE).

Fig. 5 Relative density of 92 kD gelatinase (A) and 72 kD gelatinase (B) activities extracted from saline solution- and doxycycline-treated rat aortas at various intervals after elastase perfusion. For each gelatin-degrading band quantitated by densitometry of representative zymogram, relative density is expressed as percent of day-0 control.

Fig. 6 Effect of doxycycline on rat aortic gelatinase activities in vitro. A, Aortic extract from 7-day saline solution-treated animal in control group was mixed with doxycycline and analyzed by gelatin zymography. No inhibition of gelatinase activities by doxycycline is observed at any concentration tested. B, Control aortic extract used in A was resolved by electrophoresis through gel containing gelatin substrate, and each lane was incubated in separate substrate buffers supplemented with doxycycline. Mild inhibition of both 92 kD and 72 kD gelatinase activities is observed at exogenous doxycycline concentrations of 20 μm.
